'''Kuhan''' is a regular on the [[chat room]] and was once one of the [[BBLiveShow]]'s favorite users and a favorite [[Adobeshop|Adobeshopper]]. He has teamed up with fellow user [[Gatowag]] to distribute "Kuhan" and other related apparel through [http://www.cafepress.com/Gatowag CafePress]. He is a moderator on [http://www.thegreenlanterncorps.com/forum The Green Lantern Corps Message Board]. He is also a host on the [http://thegreenlanterncorps.com/web/interviews.html Green Lantern CorpsCast] and [http://podcastsentai.iamkuhan.com/ Podcast Sentai Power Rangers]. You can find his voice on [http://www.youtube.com/TheWatchtowerStudios Justice League: The Abridged Series].
'''Kuhan''' (aka '''Naaim Siddiqi''') is a member of [[chatrealm]] from a time before the term ''"Chatrealm"'' was even coined. He now hosts podcasts.


==Kuhan's Downfall==
He is a moderator on [http://thegreenlanterncorps.com/forum The Green Lantern Corps Message Board] and the editor-in-chief of [http://sentairangers.com Sentai Rangers], as well as a host of the official podcasts of both sites. He was an editor and voice actor for the now inactive [http://youtube.com/TheWatchtowerStudios Watchtower Studios DC Abridged Universe].

[[File:KuhanWWF.jpg|thumb|Kuhan is not acceptable in Words With Friends]]
[[File:KuhanWWF.jpg|thumb|Kuhan is not acceptable in Words With Friends]]
Kuhan's status as one of the BBLiveShow's favorite contributers first began to waver during one of his regular call-ins in the aftershow when he made the comment that he was the shows best Adobeshopper. Fellow user and adobeshopper [[Petefic]] called in and mocked his claims. After the exchange of calls [[Brian Brushwood]] declared [[Adobonanza]], in which Petefic, Kuhan, and fellow top adobeshopper [[Dodd Vickers]] would compete to finally settle the score of "Adobeshop Master".


Dodd and Petefic put up valiant effort and it was a close competition. However, when it came to Kuhan's turn to prove his mettle, he showed up late and submitted only 3 pictures after Dodd and Petefic submitted many, and his pictures were very weak. When Petefic noticed one of Kuhan's images was a extremely minor rework of one of Petefic's most famous [[Ahh Pimping]] images (Even though Pete's image was just the original picture with text and Kuhan was clearly homaging Pete's prior work), Pete launched an angry call to arms against Kuhan. He thus became hated by the BBLiveShow community and was forced to not sign in the chat room as he was often chased out when he tried to speak, with Brian often yelling "KUHAAAAAAAAN!!!"
Kuhan was once renowned as one of [[BBLiveShow]]'s favorite users and popular [[Adobeshop|Adobeshoppers]], but that all changed.  
 
===Kuhan The Beloved===
''Kuhan The Beloved'' was an era of early BBLiveShow when Kuhan was considered among the best of the show's contributors. This era bloomed in a time when photoshop contests were a mainstay in the show. He earned the crowd's favor with reliably entertaining entries. It was during this time that he and [[Gatowag]] shared a [http://www.cafepress.com/Gatowag cafepress] account to distribute chatrealm and Kuhan-specific apparel.
 
===Kuhan The Damned===
''Kuhan The Damned'' is an era consisting of all the time from the end of ''Kuhan The Beloved'' to present day. The break in eras can be traced to a photoshop duel between Petefic, Kuhan, and fellow adobeshopper [[Dodd Vickers]]. The stakes were bragging rights and notoriety. Kuhan showed up late and showed a weaker display than expected, which turned chatrealm into a flurry of shouting "KUHAAN!"
 
Although there are a few instances of Kuhan bolstering his infamy during this time, it is also in this era that he successfully set a new world record for skittle eating on the show. He has since been dethroned of this record.


His infamy only grew when on the [[World Record Episode]]s of both [[BBLiveShow]] and [[NSFW]] his attempts of glory were pathetic failures (except the Skittle eating record, which he killed). As a result of his hated status he is often blamed for any technical difficulties that arise during the shows. In recent developments, however, blame has been shifted to [[Cheeto]] after he consistently tricked Brian into playing risque material on TWiT.
Since his heel turn, Kuhan's name has become more of a memetic artifact of the show being synonymous with betrayal, used as an expletive shouted in interjection, particularly during moments of technical failures. Later in [[NSFW Show]]'s history, [[Cheeto]] would become a similar figure who would come to represent betrayal of expectations.

Kuhan is not acceptable in Words With Friends

Kuhan was once renowned as one of BBLiveShow's favorite users and popular Adobeshoppers, but that all changed.

Kuhan The Beloved

Kuhan The Beloved was an era of early BBLiveShow when Kuhan was considered among the best of the show's contributors. This era bloomed in a time when photoshop contests were a mainstay in the show. He earned the crowd's favor with reliably entertaining entries. It was during this time that he and Gatowag shared a cafepress account to distribute chatrealm and Kuhan-specific apparel.

Kuhan The Damned

Kuhan The Damned is an era consisting of all the time from the end of Kuhan The Beloved to present day. The break in eras can be traced to a photoshop duel between Petefic, Kuhan, and fellow adobeshopper Dodd Vickers. The stakes were bragging rights and notoriety. Kuhan showed up late and showed a weaker display than expected, which turned chatrealm into a flurry of shouting "KUHAAN!"

Although there are a few instances of Kuhan bolstering his infamy during this time, it is also in this era that he successfully set a new world record for skittle eating on the show. He has since been dethroned of this record.

Since his heel turn, Kuhan's name has become more of a memetic artifact of the show being synonymous with betrayal, used as an expletive shouted in interjection, particularly during moments of technical failures. Later in NSFW Show's history, Cheeto would become a similar figure who would come to represent betrayal of expectations.
